"I wanted to sort out my feelings," He said.
Her eyes widened as the realization suddenly dawned on her, "Is it the sa girl whom you had the urge to kiss?"
Back when they were living in this penthouse, she recalled such an incident when he was searching for the topic 'Why would I have the urge to kiss a girl?'
At that ti, she had told him that probably he was in love.
Looking at his face, it seed like her guess was on point.
"Yes, it's her," Jun Zixuan did not deny it either as his gaze landed on her plump lips reminding him of the softness he felt when he had kissed her while she was asleep.
But he averted his gaze before she could notice.
She paused for a split-second as her eyes flashed.
"That girl I'm talking about is…."
"Alright, I've to go to the university. I have already missed the gym and one class. I want to be there before the second class starts," She interrupted him.
He paused for a mont before nodding as he walked towards the bed and grabbed the phone lying beside the pillow, ''You forgot this."
"Thanks," She took it from his hand.
"I'll drop you."
Just when he thought she was going to reject it, surprisingly, she nodded at him and without speaking further turned around to walk out of the house, missing the soft smile playing on his lips.
The drive to the university was comfortably quiet but there was tension lingering in the air. None of the two initiated a conversation on the whole ride.
When they reached the university, Jun Zixuan got off the car and walked to the other side before opening the door for her.
Back then, she was hesitant of letting him do it because of the rumors circling around. But after he ca to the PTM as her guardian, everyone assud they were a couple and he was back to his role of virtuous husband.
She alighted the car and was about to walk away when he held her hand.
She turned around to glance at him questioningly.
"Can you make so ti in the evening? I want to take you sowhere."
"I'll be busy so…" She spoke within a beat and removed his hand that was holding hers, "I can't."
She nodded at him and turned around to leave without looking back.
As he looked at her retreating back, the man could only raise an eyebrow.
He was being polite by asking her out but she rejected him outright without giving it a second thought.
'I hope you don't mind when I kidnap you,' The corner of his lips tilted up as he took out his phone and dialed Steward Gu's number. The call was answered within two rings.
"Make so preparations at the private island,'' He hung up as soon as the man replied affirmatively.
Two months of not having her hover around him made him realize how important her existence was in his life. It took him every ounce of his self-control to not abandon his work to co back to her.
Probably, it was ti to let her know that he did not make female friends. The curve of his lips got more prominent at the thought.
In the dorms.
"You have added almost all the chilli. Is it still edible?" Mia tilted her head to the side and glanced at the woman who kept on adding chilli to the noodles she just ordered.
"Edible," Yu i nodded as she picked up the chopsticks and kept on slurping the noodles.
A few days ago, Mia was watching a drama on Yu i's iPad. It was the story of a girl who got entangled with a bossy CEO. The bossy CEO got her laid, impregnated her but all this while, he could not take his mind off his childhood sweetheart. The poor female lead curled up in the corner of the room and cried her heart out when she realized it.
Forehead covered with sweat, face turning red, eyes welling up with tears. Yu Mie's current state reminded Mia of that pitiful female lead.
"What did Jun Zixuan do?" Mia asked quickly replacing the bossy CEO from the drama with the real deal.
Yu i paused for a mont and added so more chilli sauce in her noodles, "I am just craving sothing spicy. What has it got to do with anyone else?" She continued eating without paying much attention to anything else.
But when she could not take it anymore and every organ in her body seed to be on fire, she quickly picked up a bottle of water and gulped it down.
Mia scoffed as she folded her arms in front of her chest, "Or I can look into your mories," The girl suggested.
Yu i glared at her as she fanned her tongue with both her hands, "Y-You.. promised to not do that," She hurriedly spoke and continued fanning her mouth.
Mia shook her head helplessly and snapped her fingers and in an instant, it was as if a cooling sensation filled Yu i's mouth.
"Thanks," She glanced at Mia for a split-second and averted her gaze before fiddling with her fingers, "I've decided I'm not touching alcohol."
Mia raised an eyebrow, "Suddenly enlightened?" she asked in amusent.
Yu i sighed, "If the last ti I was not drunk, I might have talked with my brother and let him know who I am. But I missed the chance. And yesterday…I ended up with Jun Zixuan."
Mia nodded, "I thought sothing like that might have happened when you did not co back to the dorms. But since there were no fluctuations in your emotions, I did not look for you. Tell in detail."
After Yu i described the whole situation to Mia, the girl looked at her with narrowed eyes as she scanned her from head to toe.
"This is weird," Mia said.
Yu i glanced at her in confusion, "What's weird in this?" she asked.
Mia shrugged, "I think you did not want to eat chilli at all."
What? Was she talking in beast language? Why couldn't she understand anything? Yu i thought to herself as she looked at the girl.
